These items cannot and should not be sold. The items likely beong to the City anyways as the (mis)management company bought them with CDBG funds granted by the City.

The Broadway Market is living history from the Buffalo area and to think that the Preservation Committee is not blocking it is ridiculous! Those treasures will never be able to be gained again at a later date. What the Mayor should be doing is trying to preserve the Broadway Market and continuing to let it thrive in this neighborhood. That market has fed and supported so many people over its long history. I find this despicable in our day-and-age of historic preservation! Someone needs to step in & save the Broadway Market now!

Have we learned nothing from all the mistakes and poor choices from our architectural past? Preservationists and do gooders are quick to step forward and block progress in this town. Where are they now? Where is the outcry against the tearing apart of this significant historical and cultural landmark. We have to maintain the Broadway Market in all its traditional and ethnic splendor. And it's not up to the government to make this happen. The people of this community need to step forward now and over the years to come in returning to the Market year round.

Not only is it petty, it shows their character and lack of leadership qualities. How typical of the current management.

How old are they - 12?

How old are they – 12?
